Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Landlord and trade work in Winfrith Newburgh

For anyone letting property in or around Winfrith Newburgh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Winfrith Newburgh as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
